I'm afraid I'm going to be stuck in-between phases forever... I was lucky enough to have work insurance to get stage one done but I lost my job and I haven't been able to get another one that offers insurance. I feel like a freak, I'm starting to not want to be naked with my husband anymore either. It's been a year since stage one, stage 2 was supposed to be 6 months after... I don't know what to do. Hundreds of applications, declined by all of them.
When you say stage 1 and stage 2 are these in reference to surgeries? I'm so sorry you're going through this
I could use a little advice from other transfems here. So like, pre-transition, I did a lot of lifting. I'm not huge by any stretch but I have an athletic, inverted triangle body. Like, your classic "masculine" kinda thing, semi large pecs, semi large biceps, all that stuff. For the past 2 months when on HRT I haven't been doing any upper body workout because I kinda wanna shrink it, but like, idk. Does working our your upper body really prevent muscle shrinkage /atrophy? Or does no T basically overcome that? Did anyone do anything like this through transition?
I don't work out frequently, but I do work physically demanding jobs. After starting hrt it's become much harder to maintain muscle mass (particularly arms) so even if I stop working for a couple months (or get an office job for a bit) I just kinda lose it all. With T I had decent-ish arm muscles for years for basically no reason, and now I have to try pretty hard to even get to a fraction of that pre-hrt strength.
I would say even if you continue to work out as normal, changes in fat distribution will still affect your silhouette. But if you're aiming for like, shaping your lower body through exercise, that will definitely have an effect as well.

I looked at a selfie I took day 1 of HRT and compared to how I look today the only differences are that I now have less acne and I know how to style my hair, but I still look just as male after nearly two years what's the fucking point
I still get constantly misgendered no matter what I do or how I dress
Not having trans people in my life (bar my wife, and thank fuck for her) is draining but socialising causes HEAVY psychic damage and I haven't seen a real good trans, space, thing. Maybe there are some on a discord alternative or something? Idk
